MOI UNIVERSITY FASHION MODEL SHOCKS PEOPLE BY DRESSING IN CONDOM MADE ATTIRE

Y'all think you've met crazy until you are part of fashion. 21 year old fashion enthusiast and student of Moi University took to the streets to showcase her dress made of Sure condoms. This followed a two weeks planning of a Fashion event branded Mr and Miss Abstinence. On the day of the event after doing her hair and make up, Maureen says to have gotten a call from one of the organizers of the event claiming that the modelling part had been scrapped off. Instead of getting mad and protesting the whole day like any girl would do, the student of Education Literature took it to the streets of Moi University market center(stage) dressed in her creative wear catching the attention of students, staff and villagers who were present in the market center. On her defense for the attention seeking behaviour, she said her creativity cannot go in vain so she better showcase it as planned before. This was an initiative to support the campaign which she was indirectly and unintentionally blocked from participating in. She urged all students to promote abstinence in campus and avoid misleading behaviours of pre-marital sex which causes problems of early pregnancies and STIS but also sent a message to Moi University event organizers to stop failing student's expectations. Thumbs up to her or naah?

MOST ABUSED FASHIONS IN MOI UNIVERSITY


The youth fashion is mostly influenced by the "groups" they belong in,  their interests, role models and trends. Just like any other youth community, Moi University has various fashion trends. Eventhough most of them are classy and trendy,  campus students tend to abuse them. Below are the most abused fashion trends:

1. Rugged jeans

For a while, rugged jeans have been highly associated with hip-hop and the urban culture. However, students tend to abuse the fashion trend. Most ladies put on rugged jeans with crop tops which make them look trendy but there are certain things they miss out : an overly cut rugged on thick and black thighs ain't appealing at all . I'm black too and I love my black but there are certain fashion crimes that we have to avoid. Instead of overly cut ragged, stick to thin lines if you are unsure of how it will come out.

2. Box braids
Braids are trendy and well marching with any kind of face but only if it's well chosen. Well, various types of braids appeal in most faces but not for the box braids. If you have a big head or a rectangular face,  kindly stick to  normal braids. The best way to dress on box braids is to consult a beautician before settling on it.

3. Denim
We all love denim, don't we? But what happens when denim is dressed with any nyuinyui  kind of dressing? I guess it becomes boring. Stick to appealing styles when you want to match it up with denim and not just anything. Some dresscodes look better with no company.

4. Booty shorts with tight
In campus, really?! Unless you skipped the teenage stage, there's no absolute reason why you should dress that way. Maybe a first year could be excused but not someone who's been familiar with campus. That sucks.

5. Suspender
We all love seeing descent men who don't put on rugged and skinny jeans from Monday to Monday but before you settle on suspenders, ask your neighbor how you look on it . Some people try slaying on suspenders and whole time they look like tied poles, no hard feelings though.

6. Crocs
Crocs and air free, good for the feet and reluctant but putting them on while going to class is a NO! We don't wanna raise a generation which thinks putting on official with slippers is right, do we?

7. Shuggy hairstyles for men
Professionals should look descent. There's no one who's going to employ you with that hairstyle that looks like a mop. Practice decency coz that's how you get used to it.

8. Half Coats
In the 21st century? Come on! 

Which fashion trend irritates you the most?

FASHION EVOLUTION IN MOI UNIVERSITY

Moi University students have a fashion transformation from their first year of study to their last years. If you are doubting this, compare how first years dress to how third and fourth years do. As well, you can think of the clothes you carried while you were getting admitted to campus and the ones you own(ed) three years later. Do you still put the ones you got admitted with on? Leave alone putting them on, do you still have them in your closets? I guess most of us disposed theirs or gave them out to their siblings as they replaced them.

I remember carrying top dresses, leg stalkings, scarfs and blazers for my first time admission in Moi University. Well, that was then but today,  I wouldn't put on any of them. Not even if all my clothes were dirty. Everyone got a different description of clothing for his/her admission but what triggered the change in fashion? 

It is evident that as they stay continues, most students have a uniform way of dressing. It may not be exactly the same but the similarity can be witnessed. For instance, first years have a sense of decency but unattractive way of dressing; most of them dress like people going for Church services in a village while second years are kind of indecent. This is seen on the half body covering clothes that they put on. Most of them put on rugged trousers and shorts, crop tops and shirt dresses. Third years on the other hand have a taste in casual but descent attires. You will get them in ankara  designs,bowties and jeans, denim e.t.c . Fourth years being the elders are mostly seen on official attires. 

This kind of dressing transformation is usually symbolic : First years' is always for the innocence, second years'  is for 'growth' , third's for a confusion between maturity and evolution while fourth's  for maturity and readiness to be absorbed in their respective fields of work.
